Looking to explore God's creation down to the surface?
Below are links to videos from all of our lessons in each unit. Watch them to review at home and discuss what we have been learning about in class.

Unit 1: Scientific Method/States of Matter

Unit 2: Plants
Lesson 1:
Parts of a Plant
We are learning all about the different functions of each part of a plant.

1. Follow this link for more information. Use the mouse to identify various functions.
Record information with your pencil.
2. Next, follow this link to get more information.
Underline matching information with your pen, and record new information with that same pen.
Travel through the inside of a plant. Hold on!

Unit 3: Cells
In our next unit, we will learn about the building blocks of all living things, cells. This will involve discussing and exploring characteristics of plants, animals, and humans in depth.

In our first lesson, the kids worked individually exploring through a lesson, predicting and answering questions, and watching clips that expanded their understanding. Then we came together as a class to discuss our findings and new knowledge.

Lesson 1 (Cell Introduction)
5 Basic Functions of Life
This is a fun, but educational clip that perfectly connects with our concept.

Lesson 2 (Organisms, Bacteria, & Viruses)
We used these clips to connect with group reading from our book earlier in the week.
